Last week mega-superstar/high-energy personality/TV host/chef Gordon Ramsay was in Las Vegas to open his latest restaurant venture: Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris Las Vegas. As this is a British-inspired venue in a French-themed hotel, it’s fitting that diners enter it through an arcade reminiscent of the Chunnel connecting the two countries.

I did not get to dine, but a few of us enjoyed a cooking demo by Ramsay himself, which, of course, he peppered with some #^@*. Let’s admit it: Ramsay expressing himself without #^@* would not be Ramsay. I did not catch any of that on camera, but I do have a video where I just had to ask him why he was tossing the Caesar salad with his bare hands. I also came away with the two photos above – maybe because I’ve appeared on “Hell’s Kitchen” three times? Feel free to tell us which image you prefer. The best comment will win a bottle of wine.
